Groups that are required to promote or endorse fluoridation
More information
The American Dental Association endorses the fluoridation of community water supplies and the use of fluoride-containing products as safe and effective measures for preventing tooth decay.
Explains how people are exposed to fluoride naturally and by its addition to drinking water, and assessments of 50 studies by different groups. The general consensus is that there is no strong link found between cancer and fluoridation, however, ACS provides ways to reduce fluoride intake for those who are concerned.
A comprehensive list of published studies and descriptive websites to provide evidence that drinking water fluoridation is a safe and effective process for communities.
From Harvard T.H Chan School of Public Health, two graphs from 1976 to 2014; one of countries with fluoridated water, the other of countries without fluoridated water, comparing the average number of decayed, missing, or filled teeth of children at age 12.
Questions the average citizen might have regarding fluoride use and its safety, with answers provided by various dental-related organizations. The overall response is that fluoride is safe and the claims that it affects children's IQ are unrelated and unproven.
From Oral Answers, written by a dentist in Virginia, USA. Includes a world map showing areas where natural groundwater fluoridation level is above 1.5 parts per million. Recommended minimum level is 1 part per million to be effective in preventing dental decay.
Addresses and refutes article in Time magazine from October 24, 2005 claiming that fluoride in water is unnecessary and links fluoridation with bone cancer. States that Time quotes unproven sources or claims with no evidence. (October 01, 2005)
